  1. I wasn’t excited a week ago but now I’m waiting for 2:05 on Friday. Something like a 13-13 start would do wonders for me. Might as well not be miserable about it all. New faces like Barfield and Bannister inspire me. Looking into the past, it really is stunning that Hahn and Kenny failed to bring in outside voices, opinions, etc. This entire thing likely comes down to spending correctly down the road, as it did last time. But the foundation building aspect of this is interesting to me.
  2. If I were him I would have said I was calling all 162.
  3. I want Chuck Swirsky. No clue why his name hasn't been mentioned.
  4. Pitchers similar to Vazquez always get hauls though
  5. Benetti’s “thank you” falls on deaf ears Mikey Monaco is good but also has a willingness to forge a career for himself outside of the Sox. I have a feeling the Sox won’t go for that this time around
  6. After a year of Pedro I find myself less annoyed by this
  7. https://x.com/Steve02270/status/1720161309726052472?s=20 2014 World Champion with the Royals
  8. Does this mean you’re hearing Getz will be hired as GM? Therefore we don’t know who will be head of baseball operations still? @Y2Jimmy0
  9. I’m going to try to be optimistic. We knew who Hahn and Kenny were, we have no clue who Getz will be. He has a chance to position himself as the franchise’s savior with the right moves. He also probably doesn’t have a lot of time to prove himself, pending the sale of the team. The only problem is his hiring likely comes with retaining Pedro. That move alone might define his legacy.
  10. https://x.com/bnightengale/status/1693687880705769974?s=61&t=a3TLhvzsUCmOD6JPDWw4EQ Ink doesn’t appear to be dry @fathom
  11. No defense for Tim here. He put on his Astros cap in that moment, for all intents and purposes. Disappointing.
  12. I’ve read for the last 10 years, held it all in until now. Trust me on this.
  13. I went to the game. Currently fairly damp in an uber. If Tim truly said “I hate this place” as an attempt to be courteous to Jose Abreu, after declining an opportunity to take 2nd base and being met with appropriate boos, then I’m at my low point as a Sox fan. Everyone in a White Sox uniform should be proud to be a part of the 20k+ members of the MLB fraternity (everyone that has ever played in the majors would fit in the lower bowl of many stadiums). Yet very few do. It disappoints me every time I watch.
